That repository -- download.opensuse.org/repositories/Debian:/11/standard -- doesn't exist because it's not suppose to be published, in the first place. Local builds for Debian, Fedora and Ubuntu used to work. > Local builds only work when the used distribution and the target build is openSUSE/SUSE. [...] Creating Debian packages without the possibility to test the builds locally before they are uploaded is cumbersome. Well, time to move the package builds to GitLab, which will also give me the possibility to automatically test the packages with QEMU on big-endian systems. Kind regards, Andreas

CUDA as a build dependency
by Lawrence Murray 26 Nov '22

26 Nov '22

Hi all. I was hoping to get some advice on how to handle CUDA as a dependency for a package build on the openSUSE Build Service. A bit of background first. My packages are at https://build.opensuse.org/project/show/home:lawmurray:birch. There is a package there called numbirch that contains numerical routines that can run on either CPU or GPU, using CUDA in the latter case (much like e.g. PyTorch and TensorFlow). Currently I package the CPU version only. Users of the GPU version must currently build from source themselves. For ease of use, I am hoping to find a way to package the GPU version too. To do this I would need to have CUDA as a build dependency. Not a runtime dependency mind you, I think it's fine to expect users to install CUDA separately via their preferred means (Nvidia's repository or runfile installer, see https://developer.nvidia.com/cuda-downloads) to make required shared libraries available at runtime. But I would need to have it available at build time to access the nvcc compiler that CUDA provides. I made an attempt to create a wrapper package for CUDA here: https://build.opensuse.org/package/show/home:lawmurray:birch/cuda-numbirch. The idea was to download the CUDA installer at build time, install it together with a wrapper script that is necessary later, and then I could include this wrapper package as a build dependency for the numbirch package. I quickly discovered that this won't work, as network connections are restricted (understandable). An alternative would be to include the CUDA runfile installer in the package sources. I think that should work technically, although it's large, and unclear to me if having proprietary code included in a package like that is permitted on the openSUSE Build Service. There are some repository-specific approaches that could be taken also. Arch seems to include CUDA in its community repository, and I believe Ubuntu has it available in its standard repositories too. I will experiment with some of this. I'd appreciate any guidance that the community can give on how to proceed.

Black-listed or otherwise illegal to distribute packages on OBS
by Atri Bhattacharya 25 Nov '22

25 Nov '22

Hi, It seems there is a proliferation of black-listed (for example, x264, etc. according to [1]), or simply illegal to re-distribute (for example, skype, according to 8.iv in [2]) packages made available on build.o.o by packagers who really should know better. A simple search may be used to check where these packages are, so I am eschewing a list here. What mechanism, if any, do OBS admins have to clean-up these packages (and on repeat offences, perhaps the offending packagers [3]) so that openSUSE does not end up on the wrong side of the law perchance? See also Stefan's mail on the devel mailing list [4] on Thu, 24 Nov 2022. [1] <https://en.opensuse.org/openSUSE:Build_Service_application_blacklist> [2] <https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/servicesagreement/> [3] Without taking names, I know of one OBS package that was deleted after my pointing out of its illegality, but then 'undeleted' after a while.

Packages blocked in Projects, that build against another one?
by Johannes Kastl 25 Nov '22

25 Nov '22

Hi all, not sure if I am misunderstanding something, if this is a glitch or if this is just inteded: I have a set of projects for building Ansible for SLES15/Leap15. To make it easier to understand and manage, I split them up into multiple projects. E.g. pytest_dependencies_for_SLES15SP4 builds against pytest_for_SLES15SP4: > <repository name="15.4"> > <path project="home:ojkastl_buildservice:pytest_for_SLES15SP4" repository="15.4"/> > <arch>x86_64</arch> > </repository> > https://build.opensuse.org/project/show/home:ojkastl_buildservice:pytest_de… > https://build.opensuse.org/project/show/home:ojkastl_buildservice:pytest_fo… ansible_for_SLES15SP4 builds against pytest_dependencies_for_SLES15SP4. ansible-lint_for_SLES15SP4 builds against ansible_for_SLES15SP4 To not waste disk space, I have disabled publishing where the packages are only needed for building. Every couple of days I have blocked packages in the projects, that are not unblocked automatically. I need to trigger a "osc rebuild --all" in the project, everything is suddenly unblocked and the builds succeed again. Seems like a waste of time to rebuild all packages every time that happens. The overlay information on the "blocked" packages states that packages from the other project are causing the block. To me this seems like a glitch with OBS not detecting changes (packages in other project were rebuilt but are ready), but maybe it is just something in the setup? Is the publishing needed for this?

Cannot build locally due to missing projects at https://download.opensuse.org/repositories/
by Andreas Vögele 25 Nov '22

25 Nov '22

Hi, currently, I can test package updates only under Tumbleweed before they are uploaded to build.opensuse.org. It seems that several project directories have been removed from https://download.opensuse.org/repositories/. For example, "osc build --no-verify Debian_11" fails to download packages from https://download.opensuse.org/repositories/Debian:/11/standard/, which is set in .osc/_buildinfo-Debian_11-x86_64.xml. Fedora und Ubuntu builds fail as well. Regards, Andreas

Base images for Flatpak builds with OBS
by Martin Winter 23 Nov '22

23 Nov '22

I'm currently a little bit experimenting and playing around with Flatpak builds on OBS. My final target is to build OpenBoard, which I'm maintaining on the Education project as a flatpak. I'm new to flatpak, so I do not know too much about it. I was starting with the https://build.opensuse.org/package/show/OBS:Flatpak:Templates/FlatpakTempla… and the existing Flathub build of OpenBoard here: https://github.com/flathub/ch.openboard.OpenBoard OpenBoard uses an embedded web browser, originally based on webkit. Therefore the Flathub build file contains base: io.qt.qtwebkit.BaseApp base-version: 5.15-21.08 The new version of OpenBoard I'm trying to build is based on webengine, and therefore I was trying to switch to io.qt.qtwebengine.BaseApp. Both are available on Flathub, see the output of flatpak remote-ls --system flathub --columns=application:f,version,branch | grep io.qt But when I look at https://build.opensuse.org/project/show/OBS:Flatpak, then only a small subset of the Flathub base images is available in OBS. And indeed my build currently fails because this base image is not provided. Are there any other means to build a flatpak using QtWebengine? Is there any option to pull in such libraries differently than by using a base image? And another surprising thing: When I look at the build logs of my experimental project at https://build.opensuse.org/package/show/home:letsfindaway:flatpack/OpenBoard, then I have configured it for Leap 15.4, but all the packages cumulated for the build are for Leap 15.2. Is this intended? Or is there some misconfiguration on my side or the OBS side?

ubuntu linux-raspi kernel package requires downloading debs
by Phil Kauffman 21 Nov '22

21 Nov '22

I'm attempting to build a modified linux-raspi kernel package for Ubuntu 22.04 on build.opensuse.org. Part of the process seems to need to download 'zfs-dkms' package.

Disable all test-multibuilds in a OBS project?
by Johannes Kastl 21 Nov '22

21 Nov '22

Hi all, I think this was discussed several times before, but I am not aware of a solution: Can I somehow disable all test multibuilds in a project? Without touching each and every package? Example: > https://build.opensuse.org/project/show/home:ojkastl_buildservice:pytest_fo… succeeded: 14 unresolvable: 7 I do not care about the 7 unresolvables, as those are "only" test multibuilds. I would like to disable them, so that I easily notice if something is wrong. Not sure if excludebuild can help me with that?

Compilation fails due to OBS missing dependent packages in Debian

In some Debian cases, OBS install less dependent packages when generating the compilation environment, resulting in compilation failure，like these: [ 25s] dpkg: libqt5help5:amd64: dependency problems, but configuring anyway as you requested: [ 25s] libqt5help5:amd64 depends on libqt5core5a (>= 5.15.1); however: [ 25s] Package libqt5core5a is not installed.
